Hi all guys,

Just thought I should let you know.

Today I received an order from a guy who's located in China. 'His' name is ROBERT MERN LAU.

He placed the order paying via 2checkout.com and it marked the order as fraudulent because of the IP mismatch.

After talking to this person on MSN about his order, he kept on claiming he was australian but was working in China. But pretty interesting thing, for an australian, his English was NOT right. He could hardly understand simple English sentences.

Then, he decided he was not australian anymore, but chinese. So there, pretty much qualifies as a fraudulent order

After all this happened, I issued a refund to the credit card charged, which I doubt is of his own. This guy was pretty annoyed because I didn't accept his order and started calling me names and stuff.

So, watch out! You might be scammed by this guy.

Below is the info he placed the order with:

Name: ROBERT MERN LAU
Email: rmlau2002@hotmail.com
0414919805
7 SAILORS BAY ROAD
WILLOUGHBY
2068
Australia

Thanks,

The best thing to do is reject Chinese visa card payments...

I know, but 99% of the payments we received from chinese residents are fraudulent..

I'm sure he also ordered the most expensive plan too.

I seriously think that such ppl will ruin our reputation and becomes sterotypes which everyone despise..

Maybe if people learning English actually did so in a bit more in depth.

Utcrazy: Was that supposed to be funny - A grammatically incorrect sentence meant to make fun of people learning English? I'm laughing if it wasn't.

I'm sure he also ordered the most expensive plan too.

Well im really instrested to know the answer of that question
What do you say Gabbix

 

[ALL Acquisitions]

Generally fraudulent orders are geared toward the higher end products, so I would say its very probable

 

[GabbixSolutions]

No, he didn't order the most expensive server, but it wasn't the cheapest either.

It is not a sensible thing either to post their personal info on a public forum for all to see.
